x2. A transfer case drop would be the easiest and cheapest route you could go. You can peice together your own parts for the drop at a hardware store. The only thing you need is longer bolts for the crossmember and some solid spacers. They sell them in different lengths. 1" is ideal for that. probly will cost less then a kit shipped to you.

Thanks guys, just got the 30s on this morning. They are tight, but don't rub! I think they look great, what do you all think for a lift? (Max-3")

I've used Rusty's and RC. I like Rusty's coils better. The RC coils seem stiffer to me. IMHO if your using stock lower arms stiffer coils will add to the death wobble.

Center of the wheel to bottom of the flare is 17" at stock height. You should have that plus 6.5".
